Financial Aid - Student Eligibility
All types of financial aid have some kind of eligibility requirements. Financial aid from the State usually requires the student to be a resident of the state for tuition purposes. Some scholarships have specific criteria designated by the donor.
In general, to be considered for student financial aid a student must:
- be a citizen or an eligible non-citizen of the United States (as determined by the USDOE)
- Have a valid Social Security Number (name, social security number and date of birth MUST match Social Security Administration’s records)
- Have a high school diploma, GED, or demonstrate the ability to benefit on the CPT assessment test
- register with Selective Service, if required
- be accepted to the college as a degree or certificate seeking student in an aid eligible program at CFCC
- be making satisfactory progress toward the completion of your program of study according to the "Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress for Financial Aid Recipients at Central Florida Community College"
- not owe a refund on any grant or loan, not be in default on any loan, have made satisfactory arrangements to repay any defaulted loan, and have not borrowed in excess of the loan limits under Title IV Programs at any institution
- apply each academic year
Please note a drug conviction may effect aid eligibility.
